Mary's many medals: A heavily decorated Crown Princess proudly displays her FIVE honours during Danish Home Guard Parade... so just what do each of them represent?

Is there anything Princess Mary can't do?

After showing off her impeccable gun shot during a Land Exercise with more than 5,000 members of the Danish Home Guard in Denmark, Crown Princess Mary showed that she wasn't done in khaki just yet.

Instead, the stylish 44-year-old pinned an impressive array of five medals on to her camouflage military gear, even adding a sword tucked under her belt, before she took part in a Danish Home Guard Parade, alongside more than 4,600 volunteers.

Despite high heat and blazing sun, the stylish Royal seemingly couldn't get enough of her experience on the front line.
